You might try Half of the Human Race by Anthony Quinn. Set just before, during and after WWI, mainly in London. Not perfect, but sweet love story and also focusing on the suffragette movement etc.

I've never read this one--The Road Back by Erich Maria Remarque. This is the sequel to All Quiet on the Western Front. It was published in book format in 1931 after its original publication as a magazine serial the previous year.

Worth trying Michael Moorcock's Byzantium Endures - aftermath of WW1 and also the Russian Revolution combined!
